Forest Park in Autum

fp
Last weekend I tagged along with Katie over to Forest Park for another photo assignment she needed to get done. I actually hadn’t really been over there to walk around before, so there’s another place I can mark off my list. It’s lovely there in autumn, though it was super overcast that day. Here’s a few shots that I took.

I had Mamo-chan with me again. I really like how the colours in this one turned out.

The STL Science Center is nearby, so of course I had to get a shot of the T-Rex.

After we left that location, we headed over to The Muny to get a few more shots. We didn’t get to take as many there though because there were too many wedding parties getting photos taken.

I look forward to going back there again! Hopefully next time there will fewer big groups of wedding parties.

Ending this with a Rio since it’s National Cat Day.

More colour is filling in the green lately, so of course I had to take some shots after I got off work. Things are really the prettiest during the sunset, so I waited ’til then.

Just those for now. Off to work on Christmas ornaments and such for the shop.

More pictures to come tomorrow if the weather is nice.

An Update!

I realized its been a while since my last entry, so I’m going to change that!

I haven’t had too much to blog about lately and I’ve been busy making things for my Etsy shop, so that’s taking a lot of my time that isn’t work. Currently, there are only two items listed in the shop, but I plan to add more items over the weekend.

The shop is here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Phantomini

The shop is named after the furry babies living with us, haha. I liked how nicely Phantom and Omi’s names matched up and since I couldn’t think of another name for the shop, PhantOmi it was!

Right now, the items I have in the shop are Adipose earrings (those cute blobs of fat from a Doctor Who episode) and little pumpkin charms with black kittens. The Adipose are selling the most, so those are something that I think that I’ll always keep in stock, while the pumpkin-kittens are seasonal. On my upcoming days off work, I plan to start working on Christmas related items and custom requests for other Doctor Who related earrings.

To end this, here are the earrings and charms:
